Christmas pantry is a-bursting
Western Morning News
|December 19, 2025
UPSTAIRS the Christmas pantry is taking on epic proportions.

Mulled wine
Soon there will be no room to get to the internet router box if it needs rebooting.The box is tucked away in a corner, and sometimes takes a bit of finding - like the other night when a massive thunderclap went off over Paignton and everyone lost their TV and phone signals for a while.
It was so incredibly loud and the flash was so simultaneous that I was convinced we had been hit. It turns out half the population of Paignton thought the same thing.
Safe passage to the router is currently partially blocked by what can only be described as the products of festive over-shopping.
It's not that we have Champagne, oysters and Beluga caviar up there, oh dear no. But ever since about the second week in October Mrs H has been slipping festive food into the shopping trolley every time we go out.
